While RFPs are one of the biggest drains on marketing procurement teams’ time and financial resources, the vast majority of companies still insist on a three-year agency cycle.

eBay bucks the trend. Instead, it prioritises the development of strategic supplier relationships to achieve the optimum (and most cost effective) blend of global and local marketing delivery.

In this session, eBay and DEPT® – its partner of more than 18 years – will explore what makes a successful, strategic client and supplier partnership, as well as demonstrate some of the ways they have collaborated to solve the biggest procurement challenges; from investing in proprietary emerging technology to increase production, to augmenting teams to reduce costs while boosting productivity.
